Film review: Wadjda

Every now and then, a film comes along that changes the world. Sometimes, you don't even realise it's doing it.

World War H – or hate’s not all that

What do Shyamalan, World War Z and Man of Steel have in common? Hype - and hate.

Pierce Brosnan, Love Is All You Need

Pierce Brosnan is in Love Is All You Need, which is out in UK cinemas today. It's a charming little film, full of emotional honesty, laughs and pathos, but one thing it doesn't shy away from is this: Pierce Brosnan is old. If he started to look a little grey around the temples in Die Another Day, The Bronhom is borderline Roger Moore now. But someone he's just as charming and sexy as ever. Despite turning 60 next month.

 

To put that almighty feat into perspective, here are six things that are as old as Pierce Brosnan.

 

Colour TV (first commercial broadcast December 17th, 1953)

 

Hulk Hogan (born August 11th, 1953)

 

DNA (the first double-helix model proposed by Watson and Crick)

 

Waiting for Godot (Beckett's play first performed January 5th, 1953)

 

The Hydrogen Bomb (Truman announces US has developed thermonuclear weapons, January 7th, 1953)

So there you have it. Pierce Brosnan. As old as Colour TV, Peter Pan and DNA.

 

And you know what? He's still got it. Want proof? Love Is All You Need is all you need. Read our review here.
